Beautifully done! That is a very interesting creature, I like how the back limbs flow out like sea weed. Thanks for posting your workflow as well.
Found myself staring at it and thinking about it for five whole minutes. 
Beautifull work and great concept idea behind it.

Beautiful work !
This is just fantastic! I love the colors and the beautiful composition. Great work man
very interesting… The leaf makes me think that she has brought a souvenir from land…
I like the Genesis blurb too. I’d like to see the reverse of it done somehow. As if the planet had completely dried up and a water dwelling creature had created a craft full of water to traverse the world looking for an ocean
Oh…wow… all I can say x5 
Very inspirational. Love the concept and the realization of the piece. What software do you utilize in conjunction with ZBrush?
You left out the part of the dove crapping on
Noah’s robe.
Mrs. Noah made him stand outside for about three hours.
Nice work!

This is super cool!
Wonderful was the name I saved you final shot as so that I could always look at it and get inspired…I go through many posts, looking at whats new, and seldomly leave replies, unless I stumble upon “inspirational creations”!!
Your work is near perfection. Believe me,if anything we humans could create could be termed perfect, this sure would be top row.
I have a couple of questions though…
-
How did you get that membrane/fin like look when you initially had cylinder like or tentacle shaped extusions?
-
Was your final model rendered out in a 3rd app program?? Did you use sss skin and mental ray for your final shot?
-
Were normal maps generated and low bases exported? cos I’m wondering if you decimated the models then rendered, or used normal, cavity and displacement maps.
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Teeto.
Thank you all very much! very pleased that the work evokes positive emotions!
Teeto, my English is not well, so pardon me!))
